Saturday afternoon, the Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers played a pivotal NFC Playoff game at Lambeau Field in Wisconsin. NFL on FOX sideline reporter Pam Oliver sparked concern among fans after seemingly slurring while providing updates about the players on the field. Several viewers headed to social media and either joked about her or expressed worry about a potential medical issue.

While several people were making jokes about Oliver and whether she had been drinking during the broadcast, others took a different approach. Many came to her defense and talked about the difficulties of doing a live broadcast when the temperature is at or below freezing. Multiple peers had been in Oliver's position and knew that being a sideline reporter is a very difficult job, especially during January playoff games.

People made fun of Chadwick for losing weight, not knowing he was dying of cancer.

People are tweeting about Pam Oliver being “drunk” on national television when she has been vocal about suffering from debilitating migraines for years.

You never know what someone’s going thru.

I am not here for the Pam Oliver slander. Reporters and anchors will tell you... doing live shots in the FREEZING cold for hours makes it incredibly tough to speak, let alone function. pic.twitter.com/83Ek79VsaW

Let me be VERY clear. Pam Oliver is a pioneer and an ELITE sports reporter. She’s a role model to me. If I’m lucky I’ll be half the reporter she is. All the slander from weak dudes chilling in their 70 degree living rooms while she’s grinding in the frozen tundra, y’all corny ✌🏾 https://t.co/DyW4LxrVHx
